I picked these up this morning. I've never seen these before. I got them from the original owner.

Pretty sweet
They sorta look like 3.0 CSL/2002 Turbo seats to me

Yeah, kinda like the current one.

The seats are pretty cool. They're a bucket, but recline and tilt. Very strange. I have no idea what model they are.

Sweet! The set of Recaro LS seats I picked up from mike w: have the same fabric pattern. Yours are way cooler though.

Those are pretty sweet. That tilt forward function looks impossible.

Love it! They look like Scheel from a CSL as someone said. Did the seller tell you where he got them and from what type of car?

That would be to get the seat as far out of the backseat's personal space so as to accommodate other backseat activites.

:lol:

Those puppies came out of a coupe.

The seller couldn't remember when he bought them, but he used them in his AAR Cuda (original owner of that with 51,000 miles). He bought them new. Said he paid about $1000 and then another few hundred to have adapters made for his car. I seriously spent about two hours trying to figure out what model they are.

A little incite on these over at R3V.com - appears they were for pretty svelte guys http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthr ... 44&page=26 post # 387

Yeah, I don't fit in them comfortably, but I think the guy on R3v345p08yqwefnv'qef or whatever is exaggerating. I don't think it would take that much, so it might give me something to shoot for. :rofl:
